Yeh I'm not sure what effect the weather has, if any.
My levels were always between 4 and 7 mmol (apart from fasting) and now they're sort of 5-8 mmol with the odd 9mmol but only when I've ate something bad so they not that bad really I spose...also I'm only on half the maximum dose of Metformin too (500mg twice a day) so I know I'm not insulin dependent yet I'm just thinking of the best way to preserve the cells.... At least by the end of next week I should know roughly how long it might be before I am dependent on insulin so I'm guna be terrified sitting waiting for my results lol it feels like I'm awaiting a life sentence or something!
Glad I got my wedding out of the way last September even though all the stress of the year is what I think caused the diabetes! Hopefully your immune system will chill out on its killing spree at least until uve enjoyed ur day
Diagnosed with GD in 2010, Completely disappeared postpartum. Re-diagnosed December 2012 with type 1.5 diabetes, age 26, BMI 23 currently controlled by only Metformin, 500mg twice a day.
